Praise God the helicopters from the DR were able to do
what was intended on Saturday. The first flight in saw
thousands of people waiting at the missions site for the
much needed food and water. One helicopter was able to
make 3 trips.
Today's plan, by God's grace, is to unpack a couple
trucks that are already there and then to see how much
more food and water can be brought in via ground
transportation.
The people are already having huge bumps on their skins
and swollen feet from being in the water. Attached is a
list that was put together by Dr. Roberts, Christ
Covenant, NC, after seeing patients from the Gonaives
area from Hurricane Jean in 2004. Some are over-the
counter meds that you can begin to collect.
.
Clothing is also needed which many of you are already
collecting.
We will let you know when we have secured a shipping
container to send the clothes and medicines to Haiti.
Until then, would you please continue to collect these
items and store them at your facilities? As you can
imagine, we have only limited space for storage right
now.
Thank you again for praying for the people in Haiti and
partnering with us in meeting such an urgent need.
Funds are still very much needed to help many find
housing and just to get some basic necessities after
losing everything. Please consider sending your
donations to:
